Instagram has ignited a "sexism" scandal after banning a fashion
agency that posted a photo of two models with pubes peeking out of their
bikinis.
The photo-sharing service gave an Australian firm called
Sticks and Stones the boot because an image broke strict rules on
nudity or sexual images.
However, Instagram has now changed its mind after admitting it "made a mistake".
The
scandal came to light after agency director Ainsley Hutchence tweeted:
"This photo got me deleted from Instagram. So I'm on Twitter now."
She had posted images of two models with their bikini bottoms pulled up tight - Miley-stylee - to reveal a thin thatch of stray pubic hairs. But this was too much for Instagram.
"Unfortunately Instagram has ruled out natural hair that appears on
all bodies of women that don't trim their bikini lines. This hair
occasionally does spill out of the sides of swimwear as it does on men
in their underwear," Hutchence said.
"Clearly this is absolutely sexist. Instagram believes that women should wax or get off their platform."
The alleged ban sparked a Twitter storm. ...DailyMirror
